The Bank, as trustee of the Plan, has limited power to dispose of the Plan shares, as set forth in the Plan, such as in order to pay
participants or to diversify accounts at participant direction or if no funds are otherwise provided to pay expenses of the Plan, or as may be required by law to fulfill the trustee's fiduciary duty. The trustee is directed by the Plan to
invest Plan assets primarily in shares of Ohio Valley Banc Corp.
The Bank also holds shares as the trustee of various other trusts and it holds the sole power to vote and dispose of those shares.
